      Yeah my friends and I have been reading a book of humanities theory lately. I’m an engineer. I’ve also been fucking around with a home server and starting an organization.

      Yeah I like memes and such, but I try to learn a bit every day

      Yep, Ars is great. The hate Elon gets in the comments is always a pleasure.

      Have you seen the Asianometry YouTube channel? It’s technical topic video essays that are informative and really well made.

      Me too…I’ve been stuck on quantum physics for the past 15 years. Soon, I’ll be able to start wrapping my head around chemistry and maybe some biology before I die.

      i mostly try to keep busy with things, rather than stuff. Reading is a great way to learn, but you have to be very directed for it to be productive. Which to be fair, isn’t incredibly hard.

      Find things to do that keep your brain stimulated, and exploit the ever living shit out of them, that’s why smart people exist. That’s what they do really well. Knowledge is 50% of intelligence.
